In every area of a believer's life, they hear the voice of their Savior saying that very message that drew them to salvation, "find in me thy all in all."

This past week was Valentine's Day.  Hard to miss, with all the pink, red, balloons, flowers, candy, stuffed animals, fancy dinners... and that was just Facebook.  Love was definitely in the air and to be celebrated. I'll admit, I did have some awkward moments, a sort of sense of failure really, when I walked past… Continue reading Saturday Song: When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
